Great product
Very pleased with this product. I was able to hide all the cables and put both my satellite receiver and my bluray in a closet. The remote works both devices as specified. Very happy!

Junk
I owned one of these for about a year and it worked ok but, a little sluggish at times. The batteries don't last very long. I purchased 2 new ones at around 6 months. My original unit died and I purchased another one due to the fact I liked being able to hide the unit inside my equipment rack. The new unit would not work at all I did all the trouble shooting to no avail. I call NextGen customer support 3 times and left a voice mail also sent 2 e-mails and I never heard back from them at all! No support at all, bad company. I took the new unit back for a refund.

NextGen Genius remote extender
This unit work better than a more expensive products that do the same thing. Apart from slow response once in a while, this makes it easy to hide components for a wall mounted television.
